Since XC keeps getting more and more technical, they too will benefit from a significant braking power boost, and just a small weight compromise over the previous Level series. In reality, those weight weenies can still tune their setup with smaller & lighter rotors than before while still being able to go faster and brake later thanks to more brake power.. What’s new?
